Arms for Hostages. And 35 years of a corrupt oil policy that is dead ending this country today..... because we invested our national security in an energy policy that benefited the Republican Corporate Oil Party.

He gave away the Panama canal - This thing blinds them totally to the good man that he is. As well as the underhanded tactics by Reagan/Bush regarding the hostage situation, as well as the unsuccessful rescue.

61. What Do You Mean "Gave Away"? |
|
The lease ran out. Remember when we use to be a nation of law and respected international law? Jimmy Carter no more "gave away' the Panama Canal than the British 'gave away' Hong Kong.

You can't be a war President Monday and be a peace President the next day.

America needs an elder to tell the truth, and lead by example. Carter has done more for peace and basic human rights than any recent president. Even the freepers can't find anything bad to say about Habitat for Humanity.
